Advice Goddess: Pardon my trust

Wednesday, June 04, 2008

Pardon my trust
My boyfriend moved with me when I left for college, which shows me he really cares. I know he loves me, and would never cheat, but when I have female friends over, he’s sometimes flirty. I know it’s harmless, but it always gets to me.
— Jealous Mess

Maybe your boyfriend moved with you because he really cares, or maybe his parents kicked him out of their basement. Maybe he’ll “never cheat,” or maybe he’s already opened the back seat of the welcome wagon to half the women in your college class. If he seems trustworthy, chances are your real problem is gauging your self-worth according to your boyfriend’s willingness to sullenly ignore female guests in your home. But, what if he leaves you?! Well, what if? It won’t be a fun month, or four, but isn’t there more to your life than being some guy’s girlfriend? I mean, just picture your tombstone 75 years from now: Instead of “Beloved wife, mother, and friend who made a difference,” it’ll be “In college, she had a boyfriend who never cheated on her. R.I.P.”
